The reason I am out $4000 is because I gave a dealer $4000 worth of gear on consignment to go towards the new Keces but the dealer got Covid-19 and passed away before he could transfer the funds. My Niimbus headphone amp ended up costing me $1800 more than what I had arranged with the dealer but at least I was able to get my original $7200 investment on the Niimbus back. Instead of dealer cost I had to pay full list price. All in all I lost $5800 but the Niimbus is beautiful and maybe one day I will be able to afford to try the Keces. Apparently I would have to wait for the next shipment to arrive.
Power conditioner some say yes and some say no.
Depending on who I ask a power transformer conditioner can have a good effect on the sound while others claim they inhibit the dynamics of an amp. I don’t have serious power problems as far as I know but I enjoy my sound most of the time. I currently use a Hydra 6 for my entire system except for my amp where I use a Hydra 2. Would it make sense to invest thousands on a power transformer conditioner or would my Hydras be enough by isolating the components from each other. I was waiting for a Keces IQRP 3600 to try but the dealer I was to get it from died from Covid-19 before arranging my Keces to be shipped. I am out $4000 and am not so fast to drop another $4000 on the Keces. Perhaps in the future if it makes sense. I find that not many use transformer conditioners due to the dynamics limitations of the amp. Any help would be appreciated.
